Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed SWA polled 4,765 votes, 9.8× the 486-vote margin.

    4,765 ÷ 486 = 9.8

  2. The top two polled 53.2% of votes; the other 5 candidates 46.8% between them.

    (6,166 + 5,680) ÷ 22,254 = 53.2% · 10,408 ÷ 22,254 = 46.8%

  3. Turnout of 33.7% was 7.2 pp below the state's median seat (40.9%).

    33.7 − 40.9 = −7.2

  4. The margin widened from 0.9 pp in 1961 to 2.2 pp.

    2.2 − 0.9 = +1.3 pp

  5. The seat changed hands: INC in 1961, PRAGAT in 1967.
